Pleasing to the Eye, and to the Heart.....

Beautifully written and illustrated! Both my second grader and I are in love with the story line and artwork! My child is thrilled to own this book, she actually begged for an additional copy to take to school and give to her teacher. I think the kids in her class have nearly worn out the copy as it is now among one of their favorites.We are looking forward to seeing more charming tales byMs. Nordholm and Ms. Frohwerk. All in all, a gentle, heartwarming moral to story, with captivating artwork-- a must own for your child's library.

The Rainbow Tiger

The Rainbow Tiger passes along a message that every child (person) needs to hear at some point; Your beautiful just the way are. Aesop could not have said it better.

The Rainbow Tiger

I love this book because it is so beautifully written and illustrated, but also because it has such a valuable lesson for the kids. Wanting to be like someone else when who we are works the best for us is an important thing to realize. Thank you for this great book.

Simply Beautiful

A great tale about the beauty in being oneself. I was especially blown away by the quality of the artwork. The magic of the story is captured in amazing watercolors. The tiger and other jungle animals seem to be alive on paper. This book is sure to caputure your child's imagination and it delivers a very positive message.

An Amazing Fable and Wonderful story

The Rainbow Tiger is just a wonderful children's storybook. The story of a tiger who longs to be more beautiful by being rainbow stripped. Her wish seemingly comes true and she finds out that being rainbow stripped isn't as wonderful as she imagined it to be. This book is written in the style of a fable and sends a wonderful message regarding happiness with the way we are made. The illustrations are beautiful and each page begs to be framed. The author says this is the first book in a series...I can't wait for the next!
